Ronald Rael and Virginia San Fratello at Rael San Fratello


 

Overview:

Ronald Rael and Virginia San Fratello at Rael San Fratello discuss “disruption” in architecture and their view on the interplay between art and architecture. The Bay Area architects explain their thought-process behind the Teeter-Totter Wall event and provide insight into their material-based practice. They talk about their Emerging Objects company and explore questions about responsibility and sustainability in terms of new technologies in 3D printing and utilizing earthen materials. 

 

Learning objectives:

1.   Describe the ways in which the Teeter-Totter Wall was designed as both playful and an act of resistance.

2.   List some of the types of materials the San Fratellos have worked with in 3D printing.

3.   Discuss how both architects view art and architecture in their work.

4.   Explain the purpose of Emerging Objects and how it plays into Rael San Fratello projects.
